Self Made Secrets

On this episode, I hang out with Marcus Peterson and talk about finding and understanding your purpose and how important it is to allow yourself the time and grace to grow. 

As a former NFL athlete, Marcus talks about how his time in the NFL  opened so many doors that he never could’ve even imagined. 

How he landed a part on the popular  Netflix show “All American” and became the owner of his own clothing line,  “MP Motivational Apparel” 

We share our opinion that your 20s are all about taking risk rather than having regrets, and the importance of truly knowing yourself before getting into a serious relationship, especially as an entrepreneur.

Hey Fam!! On this episode I sit down with my boy James Mayhew, who is an incredible athletic trainer to some of your favorite professional athletes!

On top of that he's a great all around guy!

And even with all of his success in this industry, he's still had his share of losses.

We talk about branding, mindest, sports (ofcourse) and how to get over the hump when starting out in your niche.

On this episode I sit down with my boy Colin and  talk about how he went from being 50k in debt at 23, to a millionaire at 24.

On this episode of Self Made Secrets, J sit down with my boy Brian Breach, “That Viral Guy” about his journey to success. We talk how he went viral in one year,  planned it,  and how he sustains after. This was such a fun interview! I hope you guys enjoy! 

On this episode, I sit down with my boy Terry Harris about his life as an athlete and new journey as a real estate investor.

 As an athlete, you only get paid maybe 6 months out of the year. Due to the uncertainty of the athletic world, he was looking for ways to make some passive income, and real estate caught his eye.

We dig in to what thats like as a new investor and also switching lanes, starting a completely new journey. 

We also talk about his incredibly talented family of 6 siblings , (all athletes  as well) and how that motivates him in all areas!

One of my favorite messages of this interview, was never to let anyone tell you that you can't do something. 

We also talk predictions for the NBA Finals, favorite Players to hoop with, and meeting Lebron James.

Enjoy!

On this episode we go deep into the past of my good friend Skido (@skimaguire). As a Producer/Industry Consultant, he has had his hand in many different creative projects in the industry over the years. Some of his relationships include Universal Music, Roc Nation, and Interscope Records to name a few. I call him the ultimate "Dot Connecter" because he really knows the importance of relationships, how to harbor them and how they can make or break you in any genre.

We talk about his past and the tough circumstances he was born into. Drug addicted mother who had him at 14, did the best she could to protect him and show him love in the only way she knew how. But his true family, the city of Yonkers, NY, were there to protect, teach, love, and ultimately raise him.  

He opens up and tells me a very detailed version of his life and how he was able to survive, and make a way from nothing, and how God truly saved him and showed him his purpose.

I wont lie, this episode gets very real and intense talking about some harsh realities of living in Yonkers New York during that time period.

 But nonetheless, he has such an inspirational story, it has to be told. 

Most people probably wouldn't have survived what he did. In all aspects, Mentally, emotionally, physically, but he did!

Just goes to show you god has a purpose for everyone, just need to be open to it and let him guide you. 

And most importantly, never give up. NEVER.
